    Diabetic nutrition

    Hey everyone, Just wanted to share some information we learned from our new vet about feeding diabetic cats. We were feeding Gremlin Hill's Prescription Diet W/D wet and dry food recommended by previous vets. However, when we changed vet clinics (we were tired of changing every few months...

    Pineapple Juice for Hairballs?

    My cat normally hates the malt stuff too. When we put it on his paw, he didn't even try it, just walked around with the goo. But the other day we put it on a plate and he licked it all up. Go figure!

    About the Devon Rex

    A friend of mine has a Cornish Rex and he does aggravate my boyfriend's allergies more than our cat. But they're such cuties so see if they work for you. They are very needy cats, though, so make sure you're up for that.

    Very confused

    Are you sleeping with different covers? The first night we had our cat (then a scared 11 year old), he burrowed under the covers and slept between my feet. We started using a thicker cover and now he won't stay longer than 15 minutes. About an hour later, he crawls on top of the covers and is...

    You have to read this - it's too funny

    It's actually worse...when you start doing it. We were giving Gremlin a pill and half a vitamin twice a day. Ugh, pulling the head back, popping down the back of his throat, it's horrible. Ah, but that's why they invented the pill popper. If you ever need to do pills, ask for one. But...

    Should cats eat "people food?"

    Before Grimmy went on his special diet, he never liked any kind of cat treats. The only thing we found (accidentally, when one escaped our dinner) that he'd eat was a garbanzo bean. It went rolling on the floor and he went nuts over it. Really, that's what most cat food smells like anyway so...

    Strange kitty habits

    Believe me, we fully realize he shouldn't be doing these things and have taken all necessary precautions. But the rubberband thing is just weird. We don't have any laying around...he just finds them, puts them in his bowl, and eats around them until we find it. I've only seen him once and he...

    Litter Beads

    My cat's diabetic and needs 3 litterboxes all to himself just so we don't have any accidents (in case the Master does not deem the box clean enough to use!). The clay was difficult on our allergies and would end up everywhere. The cedar pellets were good but it got expensive since we needed...

    Strange kitty habits

    Hello, I was just wondering what strange habits you all have witnessed in your cats. Here's Gremlin's most bizarre: 1. Eats tape, mainly off boxes, then throws it up. 2. Licks the finish off pictures (my boyfriend was in a photography class when we found this out). 3. Finds rubberbands, picks...

    Nutrition Options for Diabetics

    Hello all, I have a stable 14-yr-old diabetic cat who is currently being fed Hill's Prescription Diet Formula WD. I'm a little miffed at Hill's because they test on animals so I'm wondering what other vets have recommended/prescribed for other diabetic wonders. Just want to see if we have any...
